Prey (2022)

[Schwartzy]

Hoping this has smaller budget so way less cgi and more practical stuff

Also i want to see the lead to go against predator in hand to hand..

Its should not be hard to beat the last movie...

But im not that big fan of the prequel stuff for this franchise but we will se what it does. Hopefully not ruining any lore...

Or that the CGI is going to look cheap asf if they don't want to put effort in practical effects
I'm just playing, honestly this one does look a bit interesting and more serious than The Predator which was basically a whole joke.

Predator and Comanche warriors? Sign me up!

Hey, no shaming the female predator because she's not married! This is 2022! A female Predator don't need no male Predator to be complete!

Looks cool but how the hell are Indian warriors going to fight a predator?

[stvn1974]

Ahnuld did pretty well on his own without weapons.

The whole "wah, there's wimmin in this movie!" complaint has always made me laugh. How pathetic do you have to be to complain that a majority of the country's population shows up as a main character in a movie? Just shut up and enjoy the movie.

He had a large group of highly trained, battle hardened warriors with him with a large amount of highly destructive, modern weapons, and they were finally able to injure the predator and disable his futuristic body armor enough to make it more of a fair fight. After all that, the human survivors were able to defeat the predator with smarts and ingenuity. Not sure how a few wooden arrows can compare to thousands of high velocity rounds shot out of automatic weapons, along with grenades and explosive arrows, but I'm willing to wait and see.

What human survivors?

None of his modern equipment helped him. He had to use his brains, a bow, and a big rock to win.

None of his team did a thing save for when they levelled the forest and barely laid a scratch. Just enough to know that, "if it bleeds, we can kill it". Still, it picked them all off one by one. When the time came Predator chose to turn his camo off. I'll give you the grenades, but they were essentially used at the end of spears. None of the "modern" weapons were successful in causing any real damage.

I imagine fire and other contraptions like a giant log or spikes will play a part along with bows and arrows. I mean, earth remained their hunting and proving grounds for years for a reason. Maybe they realized that humans are smart enough even though their weapons are primitive by comparison. Remember, they used to bring Xenomorphs with them and only use humans as incubators. Somewhere along the way that changed and humans became the prey instead.

I'd like a Britney attached to those Spears. Oops, I did it again!

Admittedly, it's been a while since I have watched the movie, but I was quite certain that they shot it in the first half of the movie and he bled glow-in-the-dark blood, then later, Arnold took out the predator's invisibility armor with an explosive device. Then he was able to take out the predator after it had been damaged with the use of modern weapons.

They grazed his leg while destroying everything in that area.

He shot an arrow he made using a grenade.

Maybe the plot is a Predator lands at the same time the white man comes to America and it teams up with the natives to kill the settlers. Dances With Predators could work.

Maybe Dutch comes through a time machine in the 3rd act....

[DR Herbert West]

Maybe they get a weapon from the Predator. Happened in Predator 2 (killer Frisbee).

Hopefully the white man also has autistic son that helps them to defeat the damn alien... That would certainly set the internet on fire.

Everything depends on how well it's done. Ellen Ripley and Sarah Connor are great characters in some great movies. On the other hand, there was a Netflix movie called Sweetheart, that had a woman beating up an eight-foot-tall shark man, and it was ridiculous.

Arnold beat it with a bow, a rock, and some sticks.

I always took the original as kind of a sly commentary on the whole action genre. Like here are these insanely musclebound guys packing the most sophisticated heavy artillery imaginable and they’re basically impotent in the face of a single enemy. In the end, you can win, just survive, and to do it, Arnold has to become a force as primal as the jungle.
